Are Trampolines Worth it? by meeple
Only if you hate your kids. When I was about 10 I broke 6 bones in my face on one of those mother frickers at a friends birthday party.

I am doing a residential landscape renovation design where I have to keep the trampoline as the focal and re-do a stone planter wall just so we can plant a tree next to the tramp.....this house is in Highland Park.....2 million dollar home.....but the people are from Mississippi.

Always relevant.

I loved mine growing up, jumped on it all the time. I had to replace the mat eventually.
I also did all sorts of flips and twists and never once broke a bone. I came close a time or two but I have always been pretty agile.

I enjoyed them as a kid, but my sons Paran bought him one for Christmas 3 years ago and I can count on my hands how many times my son jumped on it for more than 5 minutes at a time.
I recently threw it to the trash because I wasn't going to spend another summer having to drag it from one side of the yard to the other every time I cut the grass. Pain in the arse!

My kids loved theres, it kept them and friends entertained for hours. If it had tore up before they outgrew it I would have bought another. Luckily no one got hurt on it over the years.

Geeze thats a $2500 lawn ornament. I'd rather pay my kid's doctor's bill when he breaks his arm on a regular trampoline.

OP: They are the epitome of trashy, I would NOT, but I can't resist:

I have had ours for four years now. My kids play on it 3 - 4 times a week. Lots of fun.

Really give it some good thought and research. Not something you want to just jump into

One of the best purchases my parents made. Jumped on that thing all the time. I wouldn't want one with sides, that takes all the fun out of it. It is nice to have the spring cover though. Lots of small injuries came from springs pinching you or arms/legs falling through.

Great for days like today.

No net and bare springs is the only way to jump.

Theyre only fun if you pull them close enough to the house to jump off of the roof onto the trampoline and then into the pool
Did this all of the time growing up. I don't know how my brother and I are still alive with some of the stuff we would do on our trampoline. We had a custom made rectangle trampoline that was made out of old oilfied pipes that had been welded together. The consequences of landing on one of those pipes were very painful!
